Write an equation in points-slope form of the line that passes through (7,-6) and has the slope m= 1/2
1 answer:
Answer: point-slope form is
9.5 -(-6) = 1/2(0-7)
Step-by-step explanation: You can get a y-intercept by substituting the x and y values from the given coordinate into the slope-intercept form and solve for b.
y = mx + b
-6 = 1/2(7) + b
-6 = 3.5 + b
-9.5 = b Slope-intercept equation for this question would be y = x/2 - 9.5
Then use the coordinates of the y-intercept to create the point-slope equation
(-9.5 -[-6]) = 1/2(0-7)

It is given in the question that,
Julio is paid 1.2 times his normal hourly rate for each hour he works over 29 hours in a week. Last week he worked 34 hours and earned $434.00.
And Julio's normal hour rate is r.
So the earning equation is
This is reasonable, because working 34 hours with a rate of $12 per hour is
And $408 is close to $434.
